RAPAPORT… Stargems will host a series of rough-diamond tenders in Dubai this year, enabling miners, suppliers and other companies to buy and sell goods.
The sourcing-and-supply company has formed a partnership with the Dubai Diamond
Exchange (DDE) to stage the events at the bourse, the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) said Sunday.
“The business case is clear,” said Shailesh Javeri, chairman
of Stargems Group. “Diamond tenders are an increasingly important sales
mechanism for us. Through these tenders we hope to bridge the gap between the
diamond-producing nations and the manufacturing units in Asia. This partnership
will guarantee a secure and transparent tendering process in a regulated
environment provided by the DDE.”
More than 130 international buyers attended tenders at the DDE during 2017, the DMCC said.
